Mohammad Hassan Mirza died in 1943 in England and was succeeded by his nephew Fereydoun Mirza whose death in 1975 resulted in Mohammad Hassan Mirza's son Hamid Mirza as becoming the new Heir Presumptive. Upon his death in 1988, his son Mohammad Hassan Mirza II becomes Heir Presumptive, a title he has not yet claimed.
